NBA regular season, the Nets away against the Grizzlies, Irving finally ushered in a comeback after three games, compared to the comeback is happier is that Irving has lifted the home limit, the real Nets are coming, after Irving's truce, Durant achieved a relatively good record of 2 wins and 1 loss at home, helping the Nets stabilize the ranking, the Grizzlies chose to take a rotation of core Morant, but the Grizzlies are all soldiers, Irving and Durant together to get 78 points still 120 to 132 opponents, the Nets still have to wait for Curry. The return of Simmons and other players, the outside helpers are still not enough, in general, this game brought a wonderful game to the fans.
From the perspective of the whole field, the two sides started to maintain a good state, the Grizzlies relied on Bane and Brooks, consecutive three-point shots, and the Nets relied on Durant and Irving to chase points strongly, the Grizzlies scored 40 points in a single quarter, the Nets also had 32 points into the account, it can be seen that the two sides are in full offensive state, no Morant still did not affect the strength of the Grizzlies, to the second quarter, Durant went off the field, Irving led the team alone, but the Grizzlies are more and more courageous, the Nets can not limit the opponent at the defensive end, and each of their players can score, With clark and Conchar erupting, the Grizzlies quickly widened the gap to 17 points, and Durant soon returned to score again with Irving, but they were still 14 points behind.
In the third quarter, Nash began to adjust the lineup, abandoning the use of too many substitute players, allowing Durant and Irving to continue to take on the offensive responsibility, all role players to defend with all their might, such a change, so that the Nets in the case of 14 points behind, to achieve a rebound, maintain a 1-point lead into the final quarter, the fourth quarter of the competition is more crazy, the Grizzlies started with 2 three-pointers to break the silence on the court, Irving quickly returned the three-pointer, but Durant made consecutive mistakes, the Grizzlies a wave of 18-2, once again pulled the point difference apart, Irving and Durant then narrowed the point gap, but could not stop the opponent's attack, and finally the Grizzlies laughed to the end.
From the perspective of the whole game, the Nets played very well, especially Durant and Irving, these two points, but also showed the style of superstars, Irving came back to play 44 minutes, 27 shots hit 15 times, shot 6 three-pointers, 7 free throws, got the highest 43 points and 8 assists, the error control to three times, strong performance, so that the Nets are always in a strong state, but the Grizzlies' state is indeed too good, Irving is difficult to resist their attack in the last quarter, Durant played 40 minutes, 28 shots 12, With 35 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists, Durant seems to have scored and other data well in this game, but his contribution value on the court is completely inferior to Irving, especially in the final quarter, mistakes, and iron, so that the Nets narrowed the point difference was instantly pulled apart by the opponent, Durant 1 of 7 three points, there were 5 mistakes, in the final quarter his offense hesitated a lot, did not give the Grizzlies a timely response, resulting in the Nets finally lost the game.
The Grizzlies scored in double figures, no Morant, and all three of their players scored more than 20 points, with Brooks, Bain, and Melton all playing well, shooting 19 three-pointers, rebounds, assists and completely crushing the Nets.
The main reason for the Nets' loss is two aspects, one is, defense, the Nets are too weak on the defensive end, in the face of the opponent's strong three-pointers, Nash did not arrange the corresponding tactics, causing the opponent to shoot madly, second, the substitute, the two sides of the bench score is 11 to 52, 41 points gap, no matter how hard Irving and Durant try to erase, Mills played 25 minutes, got 0 points, plus or minus 27, Curry Jr. was absent, Thomas and other players, completely did not give the team the strength they deserved, It eventually led to the Nets losing the game.
However, the Nets were not angry about losing this game, especially Nash and Irving, and when Nash learned that Irving was released from home control, he couldn't help but smile in the interview. Irving's birthday party, although the team did not give him birthday wishes, but after the lifting of the ban to make the Nets truly a strong team, they will break the Eastern Conference championship pattern. Irving is also very excited to play in the home game, looking forward to the Next Game of the Nets, they are destined to be wonderful this season.
